关于跑步的建议中英文版 People have hundreds of different reasons to start running and every day at least one person tries to run somewhere in the world. Some of the newbie runners will be successful in their attempt to run but most of them won’t. One of the main motivations for people to start running is to lose weight (it was my motivation too) and this is a perfectly healthy idea. After running for three years I want to say one thing “Do not run to lose weight,” “Do not run to be in better shape,” “Do not run to win a race.” If you want to be a successful runner you need to run because you enjoy running. After you learn to enjoy running you can set secondary goals like losing weight, competing in a marathon, improving your cardiovascular health and others. Most of these secondary goals however will come naturally to you and you won’t have to concentrate on them. 人们有上百种理由开始跑步，世界上每天也至少有一个人尝试跑步。这些跑步新手中有一些能成功，而大部分都将以失败告终。人们开始跑步的一个重要动机就是减肥（这也曾经是我的动机），当然，减肥是个绝对健康的想法。在跑了三年之后，我想说，“别为了减肥而跑步”，“别为了保持身材而跑步”，“别为了赢得比赛而跑步”。如果你想成为一个成功的跑者，你就得因为享受跑步而跑步。在学会享受跑步之后就可以设定二级目标了，比如：减肥，参加马拉松，改善心血管健康状况等等。然而，大多数二级目标都能自热而然达到，不需要特意关注。  If you do not learn to enjoy running you won’t be able to stick with it. Every day that you hit the road it will be a mental and physical torture for you. Every day you will be looking for excuses to skip your running routine. Every time you will put on your running shoes you will be struggling to keep going. You can’t get any benefits from running if you do it with such a negative mindset. I firmly believe that you will even get injured just because subconsciously you want to stop running and to have a legitimate excuse why it is not good for you.  如果你没学会享受跑步，就不能坚持下去。每天的上路过程对你而言都将是个精神和肉体的双重折磨，你会找寻各种理由逃避跑步，每次你穿上跑鞋都得挣扎一番才能继续。而如果你是带着折磨一种消极的情绪去跑步，那你就没办法从跑步中获益。我坚信你甚至会仅仅因为潜意识中不想跑步并为此找个说得过去的借口而弄伤自己。 Every time that I go to the gym I see a few people running on a treadmill and reading a book or a magazine, they watch TV and the expression on their faces tells me “Man, it’s
